Fiber orientation effects on the impact surface fracture of the glass plates coated with the glass fiber/epoxy lamina layer were investigated using a small-diameter steel-ball impact experiment. Four kinds of materials were used: soda-lime glass plates, unidirectional glass fiber/epoxy layer(one ply, two plies)-coated, crossed glass tiber/epoxy layer (two plies)-coated glass plates. The maximum stress and absorbed fracture energy were measured on the back surface of glass plates during the impact. With increasing impact velocity, various surface cracks such as ring, cone, radial and lateral cracks appeared near the impacted site of glass plates. Cracks in the plate drastically diminished by glass fiber coating. The tiber orientation guided the directions of delamination and plastic deformation zones between the tiber layer and the glass plate. Impact surface-fracture indices expressed in terms of the maximum stress and absorbed energy could be used as an effective evaluation parameter of the surface resistance.

The mechanical properties were measured for magnesium phosphate glasses containing small amounts of water. The decrease in hardness with increasing water content was resulted from a looser chain structure caused by water. The fracture of these glasses was changed from brittle fracture to plastic deformation as a results of the increased viscous flow with increasing water contents. The extent of any viscous flow or deformation initiating from the crack tips in these glasses could be considered as quite small.

Metal interconnections of multilayer Al/Ni and TiW/seed-Ni/Ni were formed on glass, and the adhesion strength and nanoindentation response of the composite layers were evaluated. The Al/Ni multilayer was formed by an anodic bonding of glass to Al and subsequent electroless plating of Ni, while the TiW/Ni multilayer was fabricated by sputter deposition of TiW and seed-Ni onto glass and electroless plating of Ni. Because of the diffusion of aluminum into glass during the anodic bonding, anodically bonded glass/Al joint exhibited greater interfacial strength than the sputtered glass/TiW one. The Al/Ni on glass also showed excellent resistance against delamination by bending deformation compared to the TiW/seed-Ni/Ni on glass. From the nanoindentation experiment of each metal layer on glass, it was found that the aluminum layer had extremely low hardness and elastic modulus similar to the glass substrate and played a beneficial role in the delamination resistance by lessening stress intensification at the joint. The indentation data of the multilayers also supported superior joint reliability of the Al/Ni to glass compared to that of the TiW/seed-Ni/Ni to glass.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a hyperfine maskless writing technique by using the nanoindentation and HF wet etching technique. Indents were made on the surface of Pyrex7740 glass by the hyperfine indentation process with a Berkovich diamond indenter, and they were etched in $50\;wr\%$ HF solution. After etching process, convex structure was obtained due to the deformation-induced hillock phenomena. In this study, effects of indentation process parameters (etching time, normal load, loading .ate, hold-time at the maximum load) on the morphologies of the indented surfaces after isotopic etching were investigated from an angle of deformation energies. Finally, sample characters were written to show the possibility of the application.

Thermal deformation behavior has been investigated for unsymmetric laminates composed of various kinds of material layers, such as stainless steel, aluminum, carbon/epoxy or glass/epoxy. The thermal deformations of unsymmetric laminates were predicted using the classical lamination theory and compared with those obtained from experimental measurement. In the case of unsymmetric laminate composed of stainless steel and aluminum layer, the experimental results were agreed well with the values predicted. But in the case of unsymmetric laminate composed of fiber composite layers, there was a considerable difference of thermal deformation between the prediction and experimental measurement, which may be from the change of material properties of fiber composite layers for temperature variation.

In this study, an Al₈₂Ni₇Co₃Y₈ (at%) bulk metallic glass is fabricated using gas-atomized Al₈₂Ni₇Co₃Y₈ metallic glass powder and subsequent spark plasma sintering (SPS). The effect of powder size on the consolidation of bulk metallic glass is considered by dividing it into 5 ㎛ or less and 20-45 ㎛. The sintered Al₈₂Ni₇Co₃Y₈ bulk metallic glasses exhibit crystallization behavior and crystallization enthalpy similar to those of the Al₈₂Ni₇Co₃Y₈ powder with 5 ㎛ or less and it is confirmed that no crystallization occurred during the sintering process. From these results, we conclude that the Z-position-controlled spark plasma sintering process, using superplastic deformation by viscous flow in the supercooled liquid-phase region of amorphous powder, is an effective process for manufacturing bulk metallic glass.

Among the various plastic polymer molding methods, thermoplastic resins are most commonly used for mass production due to their suitability for high-volume manufacturing. However, recently, thermosetting resins have been utilized depending on product design and functionality, necessitating appropriate mold design and injection conditions to achieve suitable molded products. Therefore, resin selection must be considered not only in terms of product design but also based on functionality, taking into account the physical and mechanical properties of the resin. Additionally, since the flow characteristics of the resin are critical in injection molding, molding conditions should be set according to the thermal, physical, and rheological properties of the resin.This study focuses on the effects of filler content (glass fiber) in thermosetting fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP), specifically Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) resin, which is crucial for thermal deformation in automotive motor housing products. The resins used in this study include Generic BMC1 resin, BMC1 with 15% glass fiber, and BMC1 with 30% glass fiber. The research employs CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) to investigate strain under basic conditions for the BMC resin and the strain variations with the addition of glass fiber. It also examines the impact of filler content on injection molding conditions, specifically mold temperature and curing time. Experimental results indicate that mold temperature has the most significant effect among the injection conditions, while the impact of curing time was relatively minor.

Although the strength of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers which are generally used to make plastic bottles is low, the deformability of PET fibers is substantially high. Due to these material characteristics, a PET fiber can be used as a reliable strengthening material to resist a large deformation caused by earthquake and research pertinent to application of PET fibers is actively conducted in Japan. Therefore, in this study, experiments have been carried out to investigate the lateral confinement effect of PET fibers and to assess the applicability of PET fibers to construction fields by comparing the strengthening effect of PET fibers to that of carbon and glass fiber sheets. For this purpose, concrete cylinder specimens with parameters of different concrete strength and strengthening layers of carbon fiber sheets, glass fiber sheets, and PET fibers were respectively tested using two sets of cylinders for each parameter. As a result, specimens strengthened with carbon fiber sheets and glass fiber sheets failed due to sudden decrease of strength as with existing studies. However, specimens with PET fibers reached their maximum strength and then failed after gradual decrease strength without failure of PET fibers. In addition, although the strength of specimens with PET fibers did not significantly increase in comparison with that of specimens with carbon fiber sheets and glass fiber sheets, specimens with PET fibers indicated considerable deformability. Thus, a PET fiber can be considered as an effective strengthening material.

Elastic and plastic deformation behaviors of the high purity aluminum and the silica glass were studied using nanoindentation and finite element analysis(FEA) techniques. Berkovich- and cone-type indenters were used for the nanoindentation test. Deformation behaviors and nanoindent profiles of elastic, elastic-plastic or plastic materials were clearly visualized by FEA simulation. Effects of the penetration depth and strain hardening on the deformation behavior were examined. Pile-up and sink-in behaviors were studied by using FEA technique. Degree of pile-up or sink-in was found to be a function of the ratio of elastic modulus to yield strength of materials. FEA was found to be an effective method to study deformation behaviors of materials under nanoindentation, especially in the case when pile-up or sink-in phenomena occurred.

Room and high temperature deformation behaviors of Cu-Zr-Ti-Pd bulk metallic glasses produced by copper mold casting were investigated. The addition of Pd was shown to enhance the glass forming ability and thermal stability of Cu-Zr-Ti base bulk metallic glass. The compressive strength of $Cu_{55}Zr_{30}Ti_{10}Pd_5$ bulk metallic glass was 2230 MPa with 1.8 plastic strain. The stress overshoot and yield drop phenomenon were observed below $487^{\circ}C$ and a drastic decrease in the flow stress was observed at $487^{\circ}C$. The stress overshoot is thought to be associated with stress-induced structural relaxation.
